As in the previous editions, this edition encompasses both contemporary and traditional folk, square, social, and contra dancing from the United States and countries around the world. Brand new dances from Hawaii and Japan are included, as are additional play and party dances appropriate for younger age groups. The history of dance throughout the world, current trends in dance, and teaching hints for each style of dance are also discussed. Detailed illustrations and diagrams clarify technique and directions, making learning each dance as easy as “1-2-3.”
